One of last year's greatest successes for Mustad was the launching of the new ULTRAPOINT Carp Hook series. After a successful introduction in England , one of the most demanding markets, the rest of Europe followed suit. Today the series has been introduced in more than twenty countries. The following four patterns are all based on the Ultrapoint technology: X-1, X-2, X-3 and X-4.

An X for Any Occasion
The Carp hook range consists of four different patterns, available both in barbed and barbless versions, initially made in sizes 4,5,6,7,8 and 10; later the larger sizes 1,2 and 3 have been added to the barbed series. The hooks have been carefully designed to cover the various styles of fishing:

X1 - made specifically for fishing bottom baits.

X2 -designed for fishing pop-ups, particularly with variations on the swimmer rig theme.

X3 -ideal for anglers tying up blow-back and sliding Hair rigs.

X4 - the classic carp hook pattern.

Practical LabelEach packet features clearly labelled rig images, showing the best rig to use with each of the four patterns, so the anglers are able to choose the suitable hook based on the type of rig they prefer to use.

The ULTRAPOINT three-stage grinding technology
produces an incredibly sharp needle point, but because
more of the metal remains the point won’t roll or
lose sharpness – keeping that sticky sharpness for
longer.

ULTRAPOINT Carp hooks also feature Mustad’s
unique three-stage Nor-tempering process, creating a
fine grained, ultra-strong micro structure that is upto
30% stronger than conventionally tempered hooks. So the
angler can fish a smaller hook than previously, giving
improved presentation, but with the confidence that the
hooks will not let them down. Even under extreme pressure
Nor-tempering produces a hook that will deform rather than
snap, greatly increasing the chances of landing that fish
of a life-time.
